Our Glycolic Face Wash is a clear gel facial cleanser fortified with specific extracts and ingredients designed to brighten and nourish delicate facial skin.
Glycolic acid is natural-occurring exfoliant that holds a reputation for being one of the safest cosmetic options in the alpha hydroxy acid group. Glycolic acid brings fresh new skin to the surface as it safely removes the outer layer of dead skin cells, a process which helps correct discoloration caused by sun spots or aging.

On a daily basis our faces come in contact with dust, bacteria and a myriad of pollutants. Washing your face daily will help remove these impurities, revitalize your skin and ward off potential blemishes. Removing these undesirable elements from your face allows other beneficial applications to penetrate and absorb into skin quickly and efficiently.

Burdock root is also used as an aid against skin ulcers and acne making it quite a popular ingredient in the cosmetic industry.

Oil Additive Load : 1%

PH - 5.5 - 6.5

Recommendations

If you use this product during the day then be sure to apply appropriate sunscreen as glycolic acid makes your skin much more sensitive to the sun.

Scent very lightly to prevent irritation on skin caused by fragrance. Use 0.6% or less fragrance load

Addition of other ingredients should be tested in a very small sample before mixing a whole batch, to ensure compatibility.

Awesome product

I love this wash! I did a trial on my skin before selling it for my customers. My skin looked so much brighter and clear, along with just balanced and toned. It’s a great wash and intro to glycolic acid
